six down, six to go...

training for a marathon is both brutal and amazing. the mental transformation i'm experiencing is what fascinates me the most... here are my feet which i'd like to thank for putting-up with me and the past six weeks. i'm half-way there. huzzah!

...

i've decided to be wealthy...

...and it was so.

vivian girls

i might be a bit slow on this one, but i read about the vivian girls in the new york times today. the article sparked my curiosity so i surfed on over to the popular social networking web-site known as myspace. although not a member myself [rIp profile, 2002-2008] i still utilize the 'space to stream music... that's a lot of words to basically come to this point: go to this link and listen to the vivian girls.

crap

my knees were a bit achy this morning so i decided to skip the bike and take the train... thinking i had singles, when i got to the trax stop i realized i only had $1 bill or a $20 bill... the fare is $2.00 so i was left with only one option... the outcome of which is this:

dammit! eighteen dollars in gold coinage makes for one heavy wallet!

lesson learned: be prepared. and ride the bicycle.

the emerald city...

so i went to seattle at the beginning of july to spend some much needed quality time with some much appreciated quality friends... gerrad finally emailed me some photos [camera battery died and i found myself sans charger] so here they are for your viewing pleasure... but mainly my mom's because she has bought it up a few times.





i had great intentions of posting serveral photos, but then i got super impatient waiting for blogger to upload... hopefully these two will do.

getting older

i talk about the weather and listen to npr all day long.

i. am. awesome.

grosser than just kinda-gross?

so i'm losing a toe nail. it comes with marathon training. this toe nail has been "special" [aka retarded] for 7ish years now... anyway, i thought about taking a picture and posting it but then i thought some of you might find that gross... maybe even real gross. so let's take a poll... who wants a picture and who wants to throw-up now?

thanks, in advance, for your kind attention to this matter.

i would hate for kyle, or anyone of you for that matter, to be bored... so with that, you will be relieved to know that i have a new-found interest in this blog.
